Let's divide 23547 by 46
We want to figure out the number of times 23547 can be divided by 46.

Step 1:
46 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 23 / 46

Step 2:
46 goes into 23 0 times with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 23 and we're left with 23.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 23, then repeat: 235 / 46

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 235 by 46, we get 5 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 230 away from 235, we end up with 5.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 54 / 46

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 46 fits into 54 1 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 51.0
Subtract 46 from 54 to get 8.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 87 / 46

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 87 by 46, we get 1 with a remainder of 41.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 511.0
If we subtract 46 from 87, we get 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 6:
46 goes into 410 8 times with a remainder of 42.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 511.8
Subtracting 368 from 410 leaves us with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Step 7:
46 can be fit into 420 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 511.89
Deduct 414 from 420 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 60 by 46, we get 1 and a remainder of 14.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 511.891
Deduct 46 from 60 and we're left with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 46 fits into 140 3 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 511.8913
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 138 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
20 divided by 46 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 511.8913
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
200 divided by 46 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 511.891304
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 184 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 12:
If we divide 160 by 46, we get 3 and a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 511.8913043
If we subtract 138 from 160, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
220 divided by 46 is 4 with a remainder of 36.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 511.89130434
Deduct 184 from 220 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 511.89130434 with a balance of 3.6e-08.
